Care for Baby
Updated on 14 May 2025
Eczema, dry patches, itchy skin—these are common issues in babies, especially in their first year. And while creams and ointments help, prevention starts with what touches their skin every day: clothing.
One of the biggest hidden triggers for baby eczema? Detergent residue.
The Link Between Detergent and Eczema
Regular detergents may contain:
Sulfates that dry out the skin
Dyes and perfumes that irritate
Preservatives that cause flare-ups
These substances don’t fully rinse out and can worsen conditions like eczema or even cause them in sensitive babies.
Baby Detergents Are Designed for Sensitive Skin, They’re:
Hypoallergenic
Free from eczema-triggering ingredients
pH-balanced for baby skin
Recommended by dermatologists
Switching to a baby-friendly detergent can reduce flare-ups, redness, and discomfort.
